Geologically speaking, yes, but I suspect that's not what MMY had in mind. The idea would be, I believe, that a reduction in the levels of stress *in the (metaphysical) "atmosphere"* would mean that the kinds of self-adjustments of the earth's crust you're referring to wouldn't happen as often, or the results would be less extreme, or they'd happen in different ways, maybe little by little over time rather than all at once. Or to put it another way, if Nature weren't so busy dealing with stress in the "atmosphere," it could pay more attention to making the necessary adjustments in a less destructive manner. (Yes, I'm anthropomorphizng Nature here, but I hope the basic idea comes across.) Caveat for the TNBs: I am *not* claiming that this is how things happen. I don't know if it does or not; it seems pretty far-fetched. But to argue that it can't be the case because tsunamis are caused by the release of geological stress is to knock down a straw man. ------------------------ Yahoo!
